Pearl and Shashi are, in our view, superb hosts. They were gentle and very attentive to our needs. - Even needs we didn't realize that we had. The property is a lush oasis, secluded from the busy city streets, and our room correlated highly to our expectations. It was an entirely positive experience to stay here (for several weeks). As conversational partners the hosts are knowledgeable and easy to talk to about both tourist-related and personal matters. We spent many hours in their company. Our stay at - and time spent with Perl and Sashi benefited our 3 months stay in India greatly. We received far more information and enjoyment than we had planned and hoped for. For our part the stay at the home of these great people was a safe haven on our journey to India. It has been a memorable and wonderful time. Karsten and Wenche Brundtland
